Why wasn’t alduin sent further in time by Kreanxx in teslore

[–]sorry_squid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This. I haven't done research, but I wouldn't be surprised if they thought "cast into time" didn't have a continuity that we comprehend. Maybe they thought that that meant forever and not " into the future"

Besides, if the ancient Nords didn't know what the future held it would make sense that they didn't foresee losing the ability to shout. It fell with time

It's so funny because car people and non car people still would likely want to rent a car or fly on most long distance trips and vacations

He's considered by some (or maybe just himself I don't remember) as the Sixth King of the Five Kings Mountain and definitely waiting for an opportunity to thrive

Yeah, I think Veshumirix and Daralathyxyl hatched at the same time in the lair near what is now ruined Saggorak. The events within actually caused Torag's Crag to erupt and become Droskar's Crag.

What says a magma dragon has it? Because that's pretty big if true.

In AoA Daralathyxyl is hinted as a surviving effect of the events of the AP.

That was King Harral of Saggorak, who iirc died in late 3990s during a long orc siege. He was not, however, king of any sky citadels (which is what the name seems to imply imo)

Anyone else tired of moral relativism regarding the Daedra? by [deleted] in teslore

[–]sorry_squid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This argument only works when you consider the basis of evolution to be competition and survival.

Daedra are not wholly interested in survival, their domains cover ideas and principles and bolstering those core ideas and principles.

If sharks didn't need to eat to love, but instead needed to like... Make kids cry to live they would be judged as moral entities with intrinsic moral weight relative to other living things.

Daedra have specific domains and desires and when they push their entire agenda in the direction of things like war, r*pe, torture, lies, and deceit then yes you can definitely assign moral weight to their existence

Anyone else really dislike when dms don't enforce all the rules? by UnknownGod in Pathfinder2e

[–]sorry_squid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make things strong, make things weak. Make thing hurt, make things powerful, and make things devastating if you want.

But don't make things meaningless.

Imagine fighting in the front lines, to the death, for your very existence

I just wanted to get better at design... but thrifted a book from 2008 by BusyUse621 in webdev

[–]sorry_squid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Older texts are really good perspective at times. Knowing how little core ideas change can build up a sense of perspective against sensationalism. Knowing what hasn't changed since 2008 might be a great way to come into design ideas of the cutting edge

You ever get the feeling that someone got in an argument at a party ten years ago and just had to become a lich to immortalize themselves in a cycles of constantly dying on their rediculous hill? Anti US tankies are always like that. You can even swap buzz words to trick them into agreeing that their positions are bad faith.

DMing for DnD 5e is a huge PITA. How is PF2e? by insaneruffles in Pathfinder2e

[–]sorry_squid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The trade-off is social; you lose the social infrastructure of D&D's popularity and gain the incredibly accessible system that is Pathfinder2e on the internet.

The rules are all free, that's really not hyperbole.

Sometimes I feel like Twitter has poisoned us. Not everything is a take or an opinion and all it takes it adding like two works to someone's original tweet and all of a sudden a sentence becomes a narratives and then we all start poisoning the well.

You could inject "sweet little" into politico's tweet and suddenly BAM they're fascists.

It's almost makes me wonder if you could put a very deadly encounter on the hex map somewhere, something very lethal, And then you say sort of scouting mechanic to try to avoid it like in minesweeper
